When I got up earlier to bake a chocolate cake (just took out of the oven), saw the fox
saunter across the back deck, go behind the solarium, and jump up on top of the wood pile in the wood shed to get out from the much needed rain we are getting. What a life LOL. -

I live near a narrow, but active shipping river, the Calumet. One of my hobbies is looking at my marine traffic app and seeing what's coming. This Oberstar ship is a classic lakes freighter, 800 feet long

Mike built many of these after seeing something similar at a gun show. He made fold away tables and sold them when he and our neighbor (Bob) went fishing all over east Texas. Bob was the co pilot when Nixon went to China. He knew and had mementos from several astronauts. Played football for Texas A&M and we celebrated with him the day we poured the slab for the house with a bottle of Dom Perignon. A true Texan. He was buried at the veterans cemetery in San Antonio and we went to his funeral.

Even this toad was trying to get out of the rain this morning. Perhaps he was getting suggestions from his mentor lol.
3-1/2" for us from yesterday and the cove is rising and all the floodwaters of the Pedernales River are going to drain into our lake. Flood gates at 2 damns will be opened soon. Some flooding in the same areas as last 4th of July.
